Very nice. I wish the back of the pieces wouldn't melt into the background, but the composition and high-key approach are great for this photo. In my top 10 this week.

Don't like the framing of this shot. The use of negative space is not well warranted here in my opinion, or maybe the pieces are just too close to the bottom. Maybe the frame is the right size, I'd just rather see the pieces moved more toward the middle of the frame. Its a little too soft as well, it goes beyond my lack of focus comfort zone.

I think this would be awesome with a little higher contrast, although I'm sure this is the look you were going for.

Awesome usage of negative space, focus and high key treatment! IMHO you are ever so slightly over exposed. You can not see the detail on the far edge of the puzzle pieces. This is still a very nicely done shot!

Very simple white on white. Artistic and powerful. Fits the challenge well. Nicely done.

nice idea a little out of focus maybe Maybe a bit too much white

Simple approach that "NAILS" the theme! Nice touch eliminating the color which would have diluted the effect.

Wonderful! Works on many levels. Would be my number one pick.

very plain and hitting the subject: 2 things that go together

oh man! this has great potential.. now.. hear me out.
the white on white is done beautifully, but I am looking for more DOF to see the puzzle piece that is toward the rear. A bit of too much highlight on the front piece making the back edge lose definition.
I really like it... don't get me wrong.
I think this was clever.

Very striking and well concieved

Better DOF would be nice.

nice idea...looks a little washed out...overexposed
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice idea, can't see if the do go together though because of the overexposure. But, the overexposure adds to the shot. Good use of negative space, a simple border may have had more effect though. 8

I love the simplicity of this shot! I think a better title would make me feel it a little more though. I would definitely consider buying a print of this, let me know if you make it available. Good luck!

I really like this photo, also that you didn´t have more contrasts is good here, because it´s more dreamlike this way.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Excellent work. I love te high key nature of this image. That seems to work very well with 'simplicity' in the subject... great shot :) = 10

Very elegant image. Simple and to the point. One of the top 3

Maybe it would be better if the puzzels would be in focus. This DOF does not fitt with this photo. But other then that it's a great picture ... give you 8

simple and elegant. I would have preferred greater depth of field to get the back piece more in focus, but it still works OK.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A wow on composition. Like the border - adds to the shot. I think I want to see the upper left edge of both pieces just a little bit. That said, great effect

Simple and efective a 10 from me!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Better focus on the second piece would have been better. Otherwise, the best puzzle composition I've seen so far.

Very creative and I love the high tone look (10)
